adding an edit, the name Shane maybe female, not male as it is
used male and female, spelling dif sometimes

the link for the reg @ the u.s. trademark office
has a date of first use, 1979, im thinking maybe when Franks'
son Shane sent the paper work to reg here, it was 1974, not
1979 sometimes 4s are misinterpreted as a 9, the clerk may
have made a mistake, in the links below is info,on marks
check the g for 1974

Actually, it's not a "g" or a "9". It.s a cursive "J"

In closing...All information confirmed by the Assay Office, Dublin Castle:

Hi John,



The date is 1995. The other two symbols are Hibernia which is the mark for the Dublin Assay Office and the crowned harp which was the mark for sterling silver up to 2002.

I hope this helps,



Regards,

Assay Office Team
